Crosfields 3 Greenalls Pad St Os 2.
CROSFIELDS hauled themselves back into the Cheshire Soccer League Division One title race with an excellent victory over leaders Greenalls Padgate St Oswalds on Saturday.
The Hood Lane men raced into a three-goal lead in an outstanding opening 15 minutes with Stuart Wellstead twice beating the keeper when through on goal and Lee Boardman adding a third when he calmly lifted the ball over the Greenalls goalkeeper from the edge of the box.
The second half began with Greenalls pushing forward in search of a way back into the game but it was not until the 70th minute that a defensive mix up allowed Greenalls to make it 3-1.
With 10 minutes remaining spirited Greenalls hauled themselves back into the game with a near-post header.
* Crosfields will be at home again on Saturday when they face Ravenhead in the quarter finals of the Warrington Soccer League Guardian Cup at 2pm.
